IL d. or.as wan q China anys;'

10 the ossas Wal a China . l1yti,s
Able Larrieu, formerly missionssy In
China,h has published . pamphlet (.:Pas.
Is. Leroux'') on the great wall OF China
to demonstrate that that this structure
does not exist and has never existed.
The popular belief Is that this wall
stretches for about 800 leagues across
China, from the sea to the province OF
Kansu, that 1t is constructed Of cut
stone, and thirty cubits high by twelve
broad. It is believed to run straight
on regardless Of obstacles. going down
valleys and up mountains. without .
break, except such az time a. made.
along its whole course. This notion
originated with a Jesuit, named Mar.
tint, who visited China about 1850, aud
his description was followed by subse-
quent writers. NJ. Larrieu has lived
lived for several years under what
would have been the shadow Of the
great wall, had there been one; he haa
studied the writings Of recent writer's
especially Able Huc-who have crossed
the line Of the alleged wall in various
places; he has likewise studied the
Chinese history Of tho subject, and has
conclusions as follows: ny the term
sGreat Wall' is at the bottom of all
misunderstanding, and 1t comes from
the Chinese expression ..the wall
of the ten thousand H." (2) as de-
scribed by Martini and other
writer's who have CAPPED him, this wall
does not and never did exist; (3) .
Chinese emperor undoubtedly did con-
ceive the idea of a great wall from the
Gulf of Liao-Long on the east to Kansu
on the west, and this. though never
realized, had = beginning; ~ all along
the proposed line of the wall square
towers Of earth, or of earth faced with
brick, were constructed at considerable
distances from each other, but these
were never Joined together byany wall
as was originally intended. In some
of the detilcs along the route there are
walls, but these were intended to close,
these particular passages, or they r
merely the walls or villages, and are
not part of q larger scheme: Hence
the only part of tho scheme OF the
Great Wall carried out was the con-
struction of these scattered towers; the
rest never went beyond the brain that
conceived it; it was never more than q
fancy, and it IS now~e myth. This
huge Chinese wall, saySAboe Larrieu,
is a huge Chinese lie, and as for the
million soldiers which were said to
guard it night and day. they are myths
likewise. Tho alleged great wall is q
favorite excursion for Europeans visit-
ing Pekin, and such a question as to
whether it exists at all or not should
be an easy one to settle definitely

Mary AIMS Turn.

A lady attending a small church In
a rural district, tells an amusing
story Of the manner in which the mus
zeal services were conducted. The
music attempted by the choir was of "A
ilorid and pretentious character, and
altogether beyond the abilities of the
ambitious singers.
The relation between the pastor
and the congregation was evidently of
the simplest and most unaffected ma
ture. In one OF the selections there
occurred a long and snowy soprano
solo, in cheap imitation of the Italian
style. The young women who at
tempted il sang gayly on till the
clergyman evidently thought she had
enjoyed her fair share of attention
and glory. Accordingly he raised his
head as a signal, and the music ceased.

THE YOUNG FOLKS


A correspondent Of FOREST and
Stream relates how q logger named
Lynch, in the province Of New Bruins
wick, once hauled n live bear with
yoke Of steers from his den In the
woods to the camp, some distance
away. He says
Mr.. Lynch was drawing logs on q
single bob sled, an affair consisting Of
two runners, with one strongly braced
bench, or "bunk." He noticed 4 hole
near the base of stump, around
which the snow was melting, and be
stopped his steers to examine II. He
found that the cavity beneath con-
tanned bear. and that IL was large
enough for him to move around quite
freely. Lynch enlarged the entrance,
and attacked Bruin, but all attempts
10 inflict mortal wound with his axe
were futile. He thought IL would be
better IL he could get the bear out.
Taking his .tow-chain," one end OF
which was fast 10 his bunk. he slipped
the double of the chain back through
a ring on the other end, and made
moose, which he dropped over Bruins
head. He then gave the steers the
Hathaway word. They brought the
bear to the surface, but becoming
frightened at sight of him at the
other end of the line, they broke for
the camp in the widest sort of a
run, Lynch following as fast as he
could.
The bear, forgetting that the steers,
besides outnumbering him, had him
ut a decided disadvantage, would "set
down the foot of his power" 10 stop
the cattle, only TO be dragged off his
feet, and TO prove that he was very
poor anchor.
The steers reached the camp, and
rushed into the stable. They broke
loose from the sled when 1t wedged
into the doorway, and left Bruin pick
eted to the bunk. Lynch summoned
the rest OF the crew, and flashing the
bear to the bunk, took him to the set
Element alive.
